I know they are at practice down in Sunrise, but hey – it’s Florida…..
Tampa is the next destination before two home games to end this week and start the next. Hopefully – the guys will be on the mark, and get their scoring touch back.
Good to see Marty B getting some conditioning at the Port. He needs to be sharp – especially is he gets dealt soon.
I still like the 5 on 5 play, even though no pucks are getting through. You just have to keep on plugging away. Right now – with the timing – get the aggressiveness up – because in less than 10 days, you will get some cooling off time (well – except for Mr. Streit). Leave it all out there.
Would think Rollie will be in tomorrow – and Rick for Carolina (to exact some revenge).
Take this freak home to mother? Ugh!
Also – have to comment on the Jokinen deal. I think this will blow up in Sather’s face. Does he really think that this will be a help? Other than Gaborik, the rest of the offense on the Rangers is anemic to say the least. And Tortorella puts the new #12 with Gaborik…. Silly, if you ask me.
Well – we will see what happens, but this team is just like ours – they just can not score. Stop Gaborik and you have a real good chance to win, because there is little help out there…
Had to add this picture, is this a beaut, or what (with thanks to AP).
Have a hockey day!

Gary Harding is the “EYES” of the eyesonisles.com blog.
A former President of the Islanders Booster Club, and a season ticket holder for over 20 years, Gary qualifies as a ‘long suffering’ Islander fan. He, and his wife, Claire, sit in row A of Section 317, and attend just about every game possible, as well as a few road games in the year, too.
He has been a member of the “Islanders Blog Box” since 2008; a project that allows bloggers like him, to be able to obtain media cridentials to Islander home games, and get the perspective of reporting a game, just as if he is a full blown member of the media.
Gary, born and raised in Levittown, on Long Island, has been working for a major car rental company for almost 25 years. He has been married to Claire for almost 5 years. They met on a bus trip to see the Islanders play in Montreal. Gary also is a fan of the New York Mets, Long Island Ducks, New York Jets, Everton of the English Premier League, and is a big fan of the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. Gary is also an accomplished bowler, having achieved perfection on May 4th, 1994, by bowling a perfect 300 game. His highest league average ever was 216, and highest series was 798.
Favorite Isles Moment – Everyone says the cups. They were great. However, I was not a season ticket holder, or going to the games, so my favorite, was the 1993 march to the semi’s – beating Washington and Pittsburgh – the best was seeing Darius Kasparitis punching Lemieux like a rented Mule!
Favorite All time Isles player – Tie – Bossy on Offense, and Glenn Healy at the net.
Favorite Current Isles player – Okposo and JT – of course – and with every day appreciating the play of Andrew MacDonald
Favorite NHL City – Not Long Island – Vancouver with a close second to Ottawa – followed by Montreal (spot a pattern here?)
Favorite player – not an Islander (I like watching Ovie! – He is animated, funny and makes his mark)
Team I hate the most (what do you think?)
Gary currently resides in Halesite, Long Island. His e-mail address is
